Dear All

I have data on costs and effects of a medical intervention for 20 patients 
and would like to generate  the joint distribution of mean costs and 
effects via bootstrapping. The data are in a 2x20 matrix with each row 
representing a patient with the respective cost and effect data. How do I 
bootstrap each row (rather than the mean for costs and effects separately) 
for estimating the joint distribution of mean costs and effects in S-Plus? 
I am using S-Plus 2000 on Windows.

Thanks a lot for your help!
Pedram
